According to Jeuxvideo, one of the biggest gaming sites in France, Microsoft will be revealing two next-gen consoles, codenamed Xbox Lockhart and Anaconda, at this year’s E3.

As previously rumoured, Lockhart will be the cheaper variant of Anaconda, with no disc tray, essentially making it a streaming and download box. Anaconda will be the more powerful of the two, with a disc tray. Both consoles will have SSDs for faster load time.

In its report, Jeuxvideo also talked about the leaked specs of the consoles and they are as follows,

Xbox Lockhart
CPU: Custom 8 Cores – 16 zen threads 2
GPU: Custom NAVI 4+ Teraflops
RAM: 12GB of GDDR6 memory
Storage: 1TB NVMe 1 + GB / s SSD hard drive

Xbox Anaconda
CPU: Custom 8 Cores – 16 zen threads 2
GPU: Custom NAVI 12+ Teraflops
RAM: 16GB of GDDR6 memory
Storage: 1TB NVMe 1 + GB / s SSD hard drive

From the specs, it seems like the Lockhart will be offering players native 1080P gaming while the Anaconda, with its higher specs, will be offering gamers a native 4K gaming experience. Of course, none of these specs has been officially confirmed and is subject to change.

Microsoft will also reportedly be releasing the consoles at the end of 2020, with the Anaconda costing around US$500 at launch, and with Halo Infinite as a launch title.
